Tania Traver is an artist from Valencia, Spain currently based in Berlin, Germany. Her work explores different aspects that shape our identity, both cultural and ethnic. It is based on the conjugation of one’s own experiences stored in memory and the stories told by others, deposited in our imagination.
In her creative process she investigates the limits between painting and photography through the technical experimentation of cyanotype and the development of pictorial procedures. This analogical register poses the different perceptions of the viewer before the same representation of the subject and questions the rhetoric of artistic language.
Motivated by the lack of a sense of belonging, she analyses the migration movements and cultural transformations of large cities through the eyes of the outsider. She portrays figures from the reverse to reflect on anonymity and the hidden parts that end up being relegated to oblivion.
